This cosy houseboat is in the centre of North-Holland close to Amsterdam and the beach. The surroundings are very peaceful. I recommend a visit to Hoorn (10km), walking, biking or by car. Basic: Campinggaz, solar energy and very fresh water from the jerrycans, a camping fridge a record player and records of course. A solid camping toilet which is changed frequently. Kind of a bucket shower. Lots of hiking and biking km. available. Bikes can be rented, 4 good matresses. A big water terrace.

It is like camping in a regular house. Always close to the watersite. Enjoy the birds, boats an fish that pass by.

Windmills, cows, small old cities (Hoorn, De Rijp, Edam, Broek in Waterland, Alkmaar), Amsterdam, the beach and Zaanse Schans or Schoorl Klimduin. A nice pub is 200 meters from the boat. I like Hoorn, as it has a harbour and old buildings, much restaurants and pubs. A Saturday market and a Summer Wednesday market. In April May there are lots of tulips in the fields. Let me know what you are up to. I can advise you.

Such a special place to stay for a couple of days. The boat, the area around, the silence..... (not on the moments we caught fish :)) We slept wonderful with open windows covered by mosquito nets on good beds with clean sheets. It is like very luxury camping. An absolute must for people who like to get out the rush and like it a different way.

This charming boat is in a beautiful setting on a canal. We loved sitting on the canal-side deck watching the world go by, and in the evening, watching the sun set. Geraldo is a warm and enthusiastic host and has done a terrific job transforming the boat into an adorable gypsy caravan-style atmosphere. And within a short walk down the road, there is a cosy family-run restaurant with excellent apple pie!

We can recommend this place, if you are looking for amazing, quite place to stay. Atmosphere (inside and outside ) is fantastic, sounds of nature (sheep on other side of the canal) Geraldo is nice host, he helped us with transfer, he gave us good advice... thank you ! Peace and love

Okolica bardzo ładna a do centrum Amsterdamu samochodem zaledwie 30 minut. Polecam. Even though we did not see Kelly everything was well organized. Everything exactly like on the pictures. Very good contact on the phone. The region is very nice and the center of Amsterdam, just 30 minutes by car. I would recommend.

It was lovely to sleep at Marlou on the farm. We slept next to the cozy animals in the stable. The studio is equipped with all the comforts and sleeping in an old-fashioned bed, but it's very cozy! Marlou was very helpful and gave us a nice tour of the yard. The surroundings are beautiful, and very quiet. You're really gone! We have been able to enjoy life for a short period of time. We will definitely do this again!

Marlou is a very nice host! She spent some time in showing us her house and the farm and suggested a good restaurant for the evening. The farm is in the middle of nature and close to the mills! Authentic experience. Thanks Marlou

The listing was a gorgeous one already and even then the real 'Koetshuis experience' exceeded our expectations. Corrie and Henk are brilliant hosts and the balance between privacy and possibility to ask questions was perfect.

The appartment is located in a nice suburb of Hoorn, about 3 km from the center. It is tastefully furnished and very well equipped iincluding a Little sauna. Henk and Corrie did everything to make our stay as pleasant äs possible, the breakfast was fantastic. The garden is gorgeous. We wishes to have stayed more than just one night.

I'm not sure that I can accurately capture how pleased I am with my experience at Koetshuis De Hulk in only 500 words. Henk En Corrie have created a beautiful oasis that was an unexpected delight. Of course, from the photos, I could tell it would be a pleasant experience, but honestly, in my opinion, the photos do not do it justice - you must come see it for yourself! Throughout the period leading up to my arrival, Henk was very prompt to reply to my questions, and was home when I arrived to greet me and give me an orientation to the house. I was pleasantly surprised with a slice of apple pie waiting for me upon my arrival, as well as beverages and coffee. I enjoyed the outdoor space (despite the cold) to relax a bit before ordering dinner delivery from a nearby restaurant (there are quite a lot of pamphlets to help decide what's for dinner and if you want to go out or stay in). I thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, and wish I had been there longer to enjoy the sauna as well! The bed was very comfortable and the bedroom was spacious with a writing desk and great views of the property. Breakfast was delicious and was more than I could eat - plenty of meats and cheeses, breads, jams, egg, juices, milk, fruit, granola and yogurt. I travel a lot for work, and hotels often can be so boring. The retreat that Henk and Corrie have created is definitely one of the best I have seen, and will plan to return without any hesitation if I can make it back one day (hopefully in the spring or summer to take advantage of the weather and some sailing!). Thank you Henk and Corrie for a great place! You thought of everything!

Next to vegetable and flower gardens, horses and sheep, in a typical dutch village with green yards, ditches and old farmhouses (stolp) in the Northern part of Holland. Famous for its tulip bulbs. It is located between the IJsselmeer and the Northsea with beautiful villages as Bergen aan Zee and Schoorl with the largest and highest dunes of the Netherlands.

The studio has a nice living room with a sofa and two comfortable armchairs. In the kitchen you find a micro wave, refrigerator and coffee and tea making facilities. The studio has a private bathroom with a shower and toilet. One double and one single bed are situated in the bedroom. At the back of the studio you have a private garden with table and chairs available. At your request we can provide a babybed and high chair.

Historical cities as Hoorn, Alkmaar, Medemblik and Enkhuizen are near by. Amsterdam is only 35km away. In summertime all kinds of watersports can be explored around the IJsselmeer or Northsea, and sightseeings by bike/motor/car can be made on the small roads, like de Westfriese Omringdijk. In springtime the black soil and green fields change into a boost of colours (red, yellow, orange, pink..) from the tulips. The area is famous for its tulip bulbs. In wintertime, everything changes into white (snow and ice) and blue (sky) and whenever it is possible one can ice skate on the ditches or "ice fields" which you can find in every village.

Very nice place to stay not far from many nice things to visit!

We had a great family stay at Mike and Homelands. They are very welcoming and available. The accommodation is very cozy (bedding on top) and the kitchen is sufficiently equipped. Everything is like in the pictures! Location suitable for bike trips. The children also enjoyed the animals. To consume without moderation. Two couples of friends will feel very well in this slot.

The most beautiful and cosy place with the most friendly and warm-hearted hosts you can imagine! We (2 couples) spent a wonderful week in Mike & Patries' unique farmhouse. It even inspired us in many ways for our own future plans: the lovingly chosen antique furniture, the individual interior design, the wild-romantic gardens with two terrasses just for the guests, the view on the paddock and the fields.... We appreciated the fully equipped kitchen and the modern bathroom within this charming house. Mike and Patries had great tipps for any kind of activitiy in the area and we had the feeling that they could read our minds concerning upcoming wishes. :) Thank you so much for the wonderful week and the great night with you beside the fire place with some fantastic whiskys!! We would love to come back as soon as possible....
